These things come from the old times, or the era of single-line hot weapons, which are really concepts from a long time ago.
We have entered the era of mechas, and the battle lines have been pushed forward from a certain piece of land or a certain planet to the vast battlefield of the starry sky. Small things like trenches can no longer meet the needs of war. Therefore, this thing has long been withdrawn from the stage of interstellar people, and only brief records of it can be found in some ancient books.
Let's not talk about where Jiang Hui knew about this thing... How would they present this outdated thing? This really made them curious.
Just now, while Stark and Zou Yi walked away together, Lin Qi couldn't help but inquire about the relationship between Stark and the first child, and actually pried some information out of Teacher Tan.
"I didn't learn this when I was in school. You have to look up specialized books to know this. Captain Stark, did you teach her?" Captain Lynch asked in surprise.
Unexpectedly, Captain Stark shook his head and said, "No, I haven't taught her these things." He even saw the child for the first time this month.
Are you kidding? How is it possible? Are kids nowadays so good? Lin Qi thought that this was the strategy Stark taught her, and she thought that he would be able to explain it clearly, but she didn't expect that even he didn't understand it clearly. Then, wouldn't he and they be no better than a child
Unable to pry any more useful information out of his colleague, Lynch had no choice but to give up and watch the children's performance on the screen carefully.

What were Jiang Hui and the others going to do? Actually, they had no plans.
After all, time is running out, and there are dangers everywhere. What can they do... At most, they can come up with some emergency measures.
Although they got the upper hand and avoided many risks, their situation is still not optimistic.
If they were just ordinary contestants like the others, they probably wouldn't have to worry as much as they are now, as Holly's team probably wouldn't take them seriously. However, their five-man team alone accounted for half of the team in the top ten, enough to attract most of the firepower and attention of the entire training ground.
Although Jiang Hui had already analyzed that most people were outside the defense line and could not pose any threat to them. And if they tried to become this threat, they would definitely suffer the consequences and might not be able to complete the charging task in the end.
However, they still need to take necessary defensive measures, because sometimes plans really can't keep up with changes, and she believes that no matter what choice people make, they should prepare a corresponding way out.
What if those guys don't play by the rules one by one, and are willing to give up charging and avoid danger in order to eliminate her as the leader... It's not impossible. Jiang Hui always likes to think of the worst-case scenario when it comes to the development of things.
Looking back here, this training ground is undoubtedly a place where archers are king. They have personally verified this countless times before. But they have almost always fought with others in a semi-hidden state, or waited to attack the enemy in a place they chose with natural cover, but the current situation is different -
Perhaps it was the designer's bad taste that the three or four points they saw along the way all appeared relatively flat and empty, with bushes arranged low and flat, making them very easy to attack.
If they were besieged by the enemy at such an energy point, their 90% capacity would eventually be reduced to 60% or 70%. It was frustrating to think about it. So why couldn't they do some defensive "projects" when those people could come and besiege them
Jiang Hui was an ordinary person in her previous life, and of course she was still an ordinary person in this life. She couldn't think of any higher-level defense methods in the interstellar world, but she could vaguely remember a "rustic" method.
Digging trenches.
This thing is a little-known thing on the Blue Planet. If you don't specifically learn about it, you may not know much about it. Since world peace, it has almost disappeared in actual combat, leaving only traces in some literary works, documentaries, and film and television dramas.
Jiang Hui knew this only after her parents had an accident. She stayed at home and read a lot of information day and night to divert her attention. Among them was a war-related TV series, which was a modern theme that she had never liked. Jiang Hui couldn't believe how she insisted on watching it at that time.
She didn't remember the story about how the heroine, who dressed more fashionably and delicately than modern people like her, and the hero, who was a domineering president-like warlord, broke up and got back together in the end, but she remembered the part about the trenches in a certain battle.
It was also the first time that she knew that the fierce battles between the generals were not just simple attacks on each other with a hail of bullets, but also involved such cover.
Now it seems that the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated. Isn't this method of both defense and attack what they need most now
Of course, they couldn't build a complete trench that was winding and connected in all directions and could even transmit information. Not to mention one star hour, even if they were given ten star hours, it would be unlikely to dig it out. However, they could still build simple trenches, and they also had advanced interstellar tools to assist them.
Jiang Hui's brain worked quickly and he had a rough idea in mind. As soon as he spoke it out, it gained everyone's strong approval without a single word.
Because of the limited time, they adopted the point-to-point digging method, finding the position of each person to dig the pit, and covering the pit with sand and shrubs. After arranging the individual trenches, they began to work on the communication channels connecting the pits.
There was nothing they could do about this part. To ensure that people in the trenches could move around flexibly, the communication channel should have been kept at a comparable depth to the pit. However, they did not have the time to dig such a long trench, and they also had to take into account the smoothness, which was really difficult.
It wouldn't work without this part, so Jiang Hui thought about it and decided to "cut corners" - not digging deep and just shallowly outlining a rough shelter that could accommodate people lying down.
In this way, although it will be a little difficult for them to change their positions unnecessarily, it will not be too abrupt and expose themselves to the enemy's attack.
With the help of the automatic shovel, Huan Xian and Hillman completed several independent personal trenches in a short time. Jiang Hui and others planned the remaining arrangements and quickly started to excavate the trenches.
The group dug very seriously, totally ignoring their own miserable state... At this time, there were still fifty-seven star points left before the end of the second round of supply.
